Camping Toca da Raposa (translated: Den of the Fox/ Fox hole) is a beautiful Quinta of over 1 hectare situated in the serene surroundings nearby the charming village of Meruge. This hidden gem, a true paradise in Central Portugal, offers a unique opportunity for those looking to continue a thriving business. Toca da Raposa is originally a typical Portuguese farmhouse built in granite. The ruin was rebuilt back with respect for the old but with the necessary modern adaptations. Having once started out as a motor campsite, it is now a place for everyone and therefore attracts people who fall in love with the relaxing and welcoming feeling it offers.

This region is very beautiful and interesting to visit and explore. It is dominated by the ‘Serra da Estrela’, the highest mountain range in mainland Portugal (1996m). It is unique with its huge granite rocks and spectacular views, ideal for a day out or hiking, swimming in one of the picturesque river beaches on a hot sunny day or visiting the many rustic mountain villages. You can also go horse riding in the area, kayaking on the Mondego, go-karting or hire a bike to cycle along an old railway line along the river Dão. The big cities of Coimbra and Viseu are an hour's drive from the campsite and well worth a visit.

Oliveira do Hospital is the nearest town with all amenities and is located 10 kilometers from the campsite. Here you will find several supermarkets, hair salons, restaurants and pharmacies. For a smaller local minimercado, visit Meruge or Lagares da Beira, 2.7 km and 3.7 km away respectively.
